School Hours 


Our school year, like that of other state schools in New Zealand, is divided into 4 terms of approximately 10 weeks each. Between each term there is a 2-week holiday, except between Terms 4 and 1 when schools close for the summer holidays. Schools usually close around the middle of December for the summer holidays and open again in late January or early February.
